… or 9pm PT. (Right now, John Perkins, the former “economic hit man,” is talking.) Several of you got to hear Sam Harris a couple weekends ago. I’m glad that C-Span2 (BookTV.org) is reairing his speech. After I heard him on Jan. 7, I looked up info on him and his book. Here that is:
Sam Harris: “The End of Faith“
From Powell’s on The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason:
Review:
“The End of Faith articulates the dangers and absurdities of organized religion so fiercely and so fearlessly that I felt relieved as I read it, vindicated, almost personally understood.” New York Times
Review:
“[It] is rare in this postmodern age to read a book by someone so vigorously defending rational thought, especially from a unique neuroscientific perspective.” Library Journal
Review:
“Provocative is too pale a word.” Kirkus Reviews
The publisher’s comments offer much more.
